Job Hunting and currently other stuff in my life

I haven't written in the blog for awhile already. Thanks to the encouragement from Suet, I am back.

Last i wrote about the pressures of doing the project and how it is driving my lifespan shorter. But guess what, through it all, I am very proud of my work. I managed to achieve First Class division for my GPS Robot. And due to this, I was invited to a brief photo shoot of my work and I. I was told that it will be published in the KDU Brochures of 2011 and also sponsored by KDU to head down to KL for a project convention/competition on the 30th of NOV. I am thrilled by the invitation. Lets hope that I will win any of the 5 prizes at stake with RM1K each prize.

While coping with the transition of a very busy 3 quarters of this year to a really carefree lifestyle after graduation, I find myself driving myself up the wall due to boredom sometimes. I tried to go travelling, went to Thailand, Singapore and Kl(twice). I had a great time in all of these three places. I tried to work on project for others and sorry adry as your's didn't work out like it should have in the end. Bumming around, going out hiking, clubs and etc. I am actually running out of ideas of what to do. I have lost the ability to enjoy such taken for granted freedom like I used to when I was younger. When we were kids, simple minded us would be able to find anything amusing and are able to occupy ourselves easily. I guess that I have to come to realization that I am hitting that maturity age of adulthood. Owh please, friends from overseas, please come back sooner to save me.

Well, right now, i am currently job hunting. I have been getting news that Altera is an excellent company and that is where anyone would wanna start their career. This definitely got me pumping. No reply from them yet. But I guess i will wait for another week before heading for other offers that I have received like Sony and etc. I find that working life exciting as you will be earning cash of your own but at the same time, there are thoughts of I am too young to work that lingers around. I will always reason to myself this, my mum is a single-parent who did an excellent job in raising me up for 10 years without a father at my side. She did her time and right now, she deserves a retirement to enjoy the rest of her days. This is the least that I can provide her after all that she had done. That is why I am determined to get employed when I am still at the age of 21. But me knowing myself, I am a greedy fellow when it comes to choices. I will go for the best offer and this has provided another headache for me as right now I have to weigh in the choices of jobs available and choose the one that is the best for me. I am currently praying to a higher power to present me with a job that fills or almost fills all my needs and expectations.

Please please, let me hear a positive feedback from this job hunting of mine. xD xD
